(If this is true) GTA V really boosted the sales of both consoles, especially the PS3. Shows how monstrous of a franchise GTA is.

LOL_WUT3863d ago

All three consoles saw a nice boost (PS3, 360 and Wii U) congrats to all 3. ;)

Eonjay3863d ago

Also note that the Zelda Edition of Wii U launched on 9/20 at the lower price point of $299. Looks like a nice boost for the Wii U there just one day into the latest offering.

B-radical3863d ago

Gta sold roughly 18 million according to this chart that's just insane! Congrats to rockstar

Zodiac3863d ago

I wonder what boosted the Wii U sales so much(The W101 couldn't have done that alone) The price drop didn't take effect until the 20th,WW HD digital launched on the 20th. I'd have thought hardware sales would be down after a price drop announcement.

animegamingnerd3863d ago (Edited 3863d ago )

considering how wonderful 101 sold about 15K yeah most of it is the Wii U zelda bundle but i do hope that wonderful does a little better cause of the Wii U price though that is unlikely to happen

drsfinest723863d ago

Poor vita. I can't wait for the games to roll in

Kratos_19863863d ago

the vita numbers will sky rocket once the ps4 unleash but look at doos ps3 numbers :)double the xobox numbers

tiffac0083863d ago

Expect Vita sales to remain flat until the VTV launches.

iceman063863d ago

There might be a spike right around the time of the PS4. But, it will mostly remain flat until Vita TV AND a renewed focus on Vita advertising...which will probably happen post PS4 launch. When Sony "re-launched" the PSP, after the price drop, it started to really catch on.

tubers3863d ago

I'm sure there'd be some spikes after VTV, 2K and a few weeks after PS4 release.

Needs games with larger appeal for Jan-Feb.

AFAIK, GE2 will probably be its best system seller for the remaining year. SS Delta on March.
Tearaway is a wildcard.

Neptunia RE1 and Sen no Kiseki seem niche.

FW/GR2 has no specific dates but in 2014.

Games like SNAFU (anime game) and RO:Ace didn't seem to help the system much but the competition's recent software releases and 2K model/VTV announcements are probably good factors as well.

tubers3863d ago

LOL@disagrees. Impulsive downvoting I bet when they saw "Poor vita.".

xKugo3863d ago

PlayStation on a roll. Sad about the PSV, though but it's time is coming. I really believe that it's on the upcome.

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
